The examination of an ancient “portal to the underworld” that has perplexed archaeologists has finally ended, officials say.

The Mexican artifact, called the Olmec Cave Mask, was stolen from the Chalcatzingo archaeological site in Mexico’s Central Highlands in the 1960s.

The ancient artifact was crafted between 800 and 400 B.C. 

In an August 2023 press release from the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office, officials said that the piece is said to resemble “the ancient Olmec jaguar...

For the ancient Greeks, Aphrodite was about so much more than love and beauty. In an overarching way, she was the goddess of consensus, as in any interaction between consenting people or groups of people. In politics, business and war, as well as human relationships, Aphrodite embodied the natural force, mixis, which translates into connections or dealings between persons or groups. It helped things to work smoothly in ancient society.

Bruno Mussolini was the second acknowledged son of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini and his wife, Rachele. He was a decorated and experienced pilot, but his life was cut short in 1941 when he was just 23 years old. His death had a significant impact on his father, Benito Mussolini. Bruno Mussolini was born on August 22, 1918, in Milan, Italy. During the time of his birth, his father Benito Mussolini was the editor of Il Popolo d'Italia ("The People of Italy") newspaper. In 1919, Bruno caught a severe case of diphtheria. According to Rachele Mussolini, Bruno's sickness greatly affected Benito Mussolini "far more than any political success or defeat." Benito and Rachele Mussolini would spend days at Bruno's bedside watching for the faintest sign that his health was improving. When the physicians finally told Rachele and Benito that their son was out of danger, Benito's eyes "filled with tears of joy." This clean bill of health didn't last long for young Bruno, however, as he suffered a bronchial complaint just as he was getting over his diphtheria. By the time he got over his bronchial complaint, two-year-old Bruno's weight had dropped to only 15 pounds.
